Introduction: Valoctocogene roxaparvovec is a single administration AAV5-mediated gene therapy
that enables endogenous FVIII production to prevent bleeding in people with severe
hemophilia A (PwSHA). In the phase 3 GENEr8-1 study, valoctocogene roxaparvovec demonstrated
higher probability of being bleed free, improvements in annualized bleeding rates
(ABR) and in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) 4 years after infusion when compared
with outcomes while on FVIII prophylaxis during the baseline period. The aim of this
analysis was to estimate the long-term durability of valoctocogene roxaparvovec treatment
effect by extrapolating the most recent trial data (GENEr8-1 4–5-year and 270-201
7-year data).
Method: Durability was analyzed within a time-to-event analysis framework, which is commonly
used to extrapolate observed data. The quantity of interest was the rate at which
patients experienced loss of response. In alignment with the WFH guidelines and label
recommendations, and to reflect the benefit of the treatment as a whole, loss of response
was defined in the primary analysis as a clinical overview of an objectively measurable
biomarker (FVIII levels<5%), clinical endpoints (≥2 treated bleeds in 6 months) and
the return to continuous prophylaxis. The primary analysis used GENEr8-1 data only.
Scenario analyses were explored, where other definitions of loss of response were
considered, as well as 270-201 7-year data used.
Results: In the primary analysis, the median durability of treatment effect is estimated to
range from 11.0–17.0 years. In the scenario where 270-201 data were also used for
the extrapolation, median estimated durability is estimated to range from 13.2–20.4
years.
Conclusion: This analysis demonstrates that the observed therapeutic benefit is expected to be
sustained beyond the 7 years of follow-up in existing clinical trials, illustrating
the full treatment benefit that valoctocogene roxaparvovec can bring to PwSHA.
